The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

TZ170 Global VPN client. Unable to access network resources on LAN

Asked by Malnick in Virtual Private Networking (VPN)

Tags: , , , ,

This issue might have been answered before but I would appreciate a answer/solution to this problem.
 I have got a TZ170 with wireless and  unlimited users installed and it is running as DHCP server. It is connected to a Sonicwall SOHO at another location with point to point VPN which works fine. The wireless end users can access the LAN and connect to all resources on both LANs. On the TZ170 there is 11 Global VPN client licenses registered. The group VPN policy is configured to act as DHCP server for VPN clients. The  LAN consists of a NT4 PDC, 1 BDC and 4 Win2K servers. There is a WINS server in use and no DNS.  When I tested the Global VPN client with this configuration I could connect to the LAN, I can view the workstations on the LAN in Windows explorer, I can ping workstations on the LAN. I can not access any resources on any of the Win2K servers and or any of the Win XP Pro workstations on the LAN. I can access Win 98, Win NT4 servers on the LAN via the VPN client. When connecting to Win XP Pro or Win2K servers I get the following error message: "\\Computer is not accessible. You might not have permission tho use this network resource. Contact ... The network path was not found."
If I use a lmhosts file on the Global VPN client computer I can use Outlook to connect to the Exchange server on the LAN. However I still get mentioned error message when trying to access resources on the LAN.
When using the previous Sonicwall VPN client with the SOHO model we did not experience any of these problems. Numerous support calls to sonicwall failed to resolve this issue.
